Just use a mini PC and pirate everything. The amazon fire interface sucks anyways. Every streaming service is in a different app and you have to remember which app to use for each show.
Or buy a second hand pc for not much more than 50 euros/dollars. Install linux and it’ll be more than fast enough for torrenting, playing media and a bit of surfing. Companies are off loading anything that can’t run windows 11 right now.
Also means you’re not torrenting stuff on your main system while gaming.
After a long time trying to wrap my head around, I finally have jellyfin, are Services, with transmission running behind a vpn, all running seamlessly with a single docker compose file. It’s beautiful. I’m only sad I didn’t do it sooner. Fuck these companies.
If you’re running a steam machine or a steam deck, SteamOS is the way to go. It’s significantly smoother, and running Bazzites Game Interface version is buggy and slow as hell in comparison to native steamos

If you want a new console + a PC at your TV, I think the new Steam Machine could be nice for that.
Running SteamOS (Linux) this should be good, or am I missing something?
NVIDIA shield is still king.
+1 Coming up on my ten year anniversary with mine.
I suggest Bazzite if you want a better expirience, it’s more mantained than the public steamOS release and has a little more features

Oh so you already own a Steam Machine and installed it? What’s the performance like? Did you install Kodi?
HDMI-CEC out of the box? Does it not lose focus when you turn off/on the TV so keyboard/remote navigation becomes impossible?
Got any suggested tutorials?
